I'm offering
I have managed a small team as an art director. My responsibilities were to ensure that the team delivered a good quality design on deadline. This included interpreting briefs, creating concepts and designs, checking artwork, and signing-off artwork that went to printers.
I have worked with teams to conceptualize communication material as well as the design thereof. This included directing photoshoots, liaising with client service teams, the clients themselves, and with suppliers. (printers, editors, illustrators, photographers, etc.) It also included creating systems and processes so that the studio ran smoothly; as well plan traffic work through that system.
